Iron golems drop cogwheels and large shields when destroyed, in addition to iron chains. Clockwork automata drop cogwheels and sprockets. These belong to the _item class (renamed 'useless item') and can be used as improvised weapons.

Gameplay

Legacy

UnNetHack and some other variants incorporate part of this patch, most notably the disintegrator, a much more dangerous cousin of the rust monster and the disenchanter. Some of the new names for generic dragons are also used in UnNetHack, but their breath types and resistances are randomized at the beginning of the game.
